The Common Shares issued by the Corporation are restricted from transfer for a period of four months from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable securities laws and TSX Venture Exchange policies.

The holder of the Note is Philip Renaud, a director and the Chairman of the Corporation. As Mr. Renaud is a director and Chairman of the Corporation, the issuance of the Common Shares to Mr. Renaud in payment of interest owing to him is considered to be a "related party transaction" for the purposes of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). In accordance with MI 61-101, the Corporation is not required to obtain a formal valuation or minority approval of the transaction due to the fact that it may rely on an exemption to those requirements contained in MI 61-101, namely that the fair market value of the transaction is not more than 25% of the market capitalization of the Corporation.

About Kane Biotech Inc.

Kane Biotech is a biotechnology company engaged in the development of products to prevent and disperse biofilms. Biofilms develop when bacteria, and other microorganisms, form a protective matrix that acts as a shield against attack. When in a biofilm, bacteria become highly resistant to antibiotics, biocides, disinfectants, high temperatures and host immune responses. This resiliency contributes to human health problems such as recurrent urinary tract infections, medical device associated infections and tooth decay.

Kane Biotech uses a patent protected technology based on molecular mechanisms of biofilm formation and methods for finding compounds that inhibit or disrupt biofilms. The Corporation has evidence that this technology has potential to significantly improve the ability to prevent and/or destroy biofilms in several medical and industrial applications.

The TSX Venture Exchange does not accept responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
